maple syrup optional, to taste
2 cups cereal optional, one cup each of two different cereals
2 cups 100% fruit juice optional, one cup each of two different flavors
1 T gelatin

Instructions

The Night Before - Fruit Juice

Get two bowls out, and one cup of chilled juice.
Pour 1/4 cup of juice into one bowl, and the rest into the other.
2 cups 100% fruit juice
Sprinkle 1/2 T of gelatin over the 1/4 cup of juice and allow to bloom for a couple of minutes.
1 T gelatin
Microwave the other bowl of juice until just boiling.
Add the hot juice to the gelatin juice and mix until fully combined.
Pour the juice into a mold and place in the refrigerator when no longer hot.
Allow to set for several hours of over night.
Repeat with another cup of a different flavored juice.
When solidified, take a fork and mash the jelly up into pieces.
Note: using two different colored juices will make for a prettier presentation!

In the Morning - Assemble

In clear cups, layer yogurt, jelly, and cereal.
You may want to sweeten your yogurt with some maple syrup. I give my kids plain, but sweeten mine slightly. You can also use flavored yogurt.
1 lb Plain full fat Greek yogurt, maple syrup, 2 cups cereal
Eat immediately, as cereal will start to get soggy if you leave it too long.
